some folks have a hard time seeing boxen of that ilk as being
routers. stripped down NAT, sure.

so as long as you and your US researcher are clear that you are looking
at "settop boxes" ... then I have no problems.
but if you start building a punchlist of desired characteristics that
are missing, then you'll be getting any number of feature requests.
if one is after EDNS0 support, then dealing w/ UDP fragmentation will
be an issue -unless- the device in question can handle 4k UDP frames.
"rewriting" DNS queries will muck w/ DNSSEC signed data.
etc.etc. good luck.
